BillsPride12

Could be any sports team...College, Minor League teams like the Bisons or Amerks etc... The only team I've ever had season tickets for are the Bills

I mean that's pretty much the way it is at every stadium across America these days. The Bills had one of the few last true sporting environments for real fans.

And I never said they won't be a playoff team this year. My post is strictly going against the OP's original point about the Bills winning a Super Bowl this year. There's just too many holes to fill in one draft for them to be built to win the whole thing. But yes I completely agree that turning over an aging roster and bringing in youth will be a shot in the arm. Two good draft classes and possibly a nice free agent or two in the mix and this team can be right back in the thick of things.

Before I say anything else I have no problem moving on from any of these guys. It was the right move 100% I am excited for the direction the Bills are going in. But if you are talking about going directly into next season you are delusional if you don't think they won't feel the impact of losing so many starters and vets and they are going to waltz into a Super Bowl title. We have no idea what Mcgovern is going to look like as a starting Center, we have no idea what the Defensive secondary is going to look like. Our D-line still came up way too short last season when it really mattered and there's no indication that is going to be resolved by next season. There will be growing pains or setbacks this upcoming year. I swear some fans on here underestimate how freaking hard it is to actually win a Super Bowl lol.

He said there wasn't enough room in this town for both Diggs and Maddy Glab and one of them had to go

Putting it on my list!

I have no doubt the Bills are going to buy him out. I'm not sure what the future of tailgating will look like at the new stadium but I can almost guarantee they aren't going to want any of the "blue collar tailgating" going on in one of the lots right next to this new fancy schmancy stadium lol.

Too much roster turnover, too many variables, and ultimately I think we will head into the season with too many holes. Sure we will fill some holes in the draft but they won't be able to fill them all and even if we hit on some draft picks you have to anticipate some rookie struggles coming. It's irrelevant comparing what the Bills did last year as this team is going to look significantly different this season.

Ahh that makes much more sense. It looked like Mr. Nanny but I couldn't remember this scene and I've never seen Suburban Commando 😬

I think it's entirely possible they still win 10 plus games and win the division again. I never said they were going to suck this year. The topic of this thread was that the Bills can still win a Super Bowl this year. That's where I completely disagree.

Was this Mr. Nanny?

I'm not making that statement strictly based on losing Diggs. I'm factoring in the losses of Morse, Poyer, White, Gabe Davis, Leonard Floyd as well. It's just too much roster turnover for one season. Of course they aren't going to come out and talk like it in front of the media but I guarantee you behind closed doors even Beane and McDermott are approaching the next couple years like a quick reset.

Give it up man....we are looking at a 2 year re-tooling phase right now. It's not a bad thing. Bills will be fine in the long run. You are nuts if your expectation is a Super Bowl win in 2024

I just read an article in the paper about how the Woodstock Museum is currently working on a project where they are traveling around and meeting face to face with people who attended Woodstock to compile an oral history catalog on first hand experiences. It's important they do this now because that population is starting to age out and they want to separate facts v.s. myths while they still can. Pretty cool stuff.

Loved him in Happy Gilmore and Freaks and Geeks. RIP

Now this is an interesting piece of info. They must be going through the process much quicker than originally anticipated as the early reports were saying it would take them this entire year just to get through people in the club seats and wouldn't get to people in the lower bowl until 2025. I'm also very curious to see what the PSL is going to be for 50 yard line seats. My guess is $10K

I remember it being pretty bad but I definitely did not have any expectations for the Bills back then so I view that as one of the many bad seasons of Bills football. But for me a disappointing season happens when I have higher expectations.

As the season is winding down and no playoffs in sight for Year 13 I am just reflecting a bit on this season and wondering if this will go down as the most disappointing season in Buffalo sports history? Reminds me a little bit of the failed expectations of the Drew Bledsoe/Takeo Spikes years but at that point the Bills drought was just in the beginning stages so the frustration wasn't as pent up as it is right now with the Sab's

I mean a $1000-$2000 PSL isn't expensive by any means and I could easily afford it without a sweat but for me there's a principle involved at stake too as someone who has pretty good seats in the 100 level currently. I just can't justify paying more money to go sit in the nosebleeds for a more watered down gameday experience. I may be in a unique position(or not so unique from a lot of commentary I'm seeing here and other places) where I am just getting sick of the NFL in general and looking forward to taking a step back. It all comes down to personal choices how bad do you want to be there and at what cost. For me the desire just isn't there anymore.

But do you trust the process?

I've never really put too much weight into the changes that will be going on with the club seats but to me the biggest concern would have to be the changing demographics in the 100 level seats. I know those seats won't have $50K PSL's but I'm anticipating them to be anywhere from $5K-$10K depending on where in the 100 level and that will be enough to steer a decent amount of people away. I'm not just pulling that out of thin air. There are tons of Bills fan groups and pages and accounts on Facebook and Twitter filled with long-time season ticket holders in that area that say they are ready to walk away if the PSL's are going to be that much. Sure some of them may end up buying tickets in the nosebleeds and end zones(which I don't think the PSL's will be too bad there) but it is going to create a logjam of fans fighting over those seats that won't be able to keep their current seating area in the new stadium. Am I wrong to expect this to be the case?
